"When was in England I found on
all the dead walls of London pIaeards
declaring that Dean Stanley, Chaplain
| to the Prince of Wales, would prea eh
at such place: that His Grace the
Archbishop Il think of Canterbury,
would preach at another time and
/ place; again, that an Oxford professor
would preach. In short, religious no.
/ tees were sprinlIled in among the
theatre bills. and the highest church
/ dignitaries were advertised side by side
with actors, singers aod clowns. OF
! course, was shocked by it, but in
moment l bethought me, if it be all
right and digTtfied to hire sexton to
/ ring a bell when a minister is going
| to preach, it is all the same to ST.
/ lence the bell and hire bill sticl1er to
| tell the same news, the essential thing
/ being to tell the truth every time. The

! honest men to tell the truth. when

able information can a newspaper give
than to tell a man where he can be
| cured? If man has devoted his life
and labor to the study of a special
class of diseases, the necessity Of his
saying so becomes all the more press
ing. His duty to advertise becomes
imperiOus"
The above are the words of Rev.
Thos. K. Beecher, and thousands of
people might reap immediate profit
if like him, they would use their
reason instead of being governed
by prejudice.
HON. TOM CRUTCHFIELD
was known to thousands of people
throughout the United States, and
especially to citizens of his native
State, as a man of broad views,
deep research and universal charity.
He was at one time Commissioner
of Agriculture for the State of
Tennessee, President of a bank in
Chattanooga and owner of the
famous farm "Amnicola." He was
also a patron and correspondent of
the leading agricultural newspapers
of the country, and contributed
much to the development of the
New South. The following letter
from him shows that he believed
like Mr.. Beecher, that the way to
benefit mankind was to make pub
lie any valuable information he had
acquired
AMNICOLA, NEAR CHATTANOOGA,
February u, 1881.
To the Chattanooga Medicine Co.,
Chattanooga, Tenn:
McElree's Wine of Cardui, manufac-
tured and sold by you, has no equal as
remedy for the ailments for which it
is recommended. It is surely "WO-
mems Relief" as all females who are
troubled with irregularities peculiar to
their sex land how few are not) will
testify when once they try it.
The innate mOdesty of woman pre-
venting her from letting her troubles
be known alone prevents thousands
from getting relief. All who once use
Wine of Cardui, or WOman's Relief
will find it true to name, and twill
have the witness within Themselves
Being a family man, numerous in
stances of the wonderful effect of this
great remedy, "Woman's Relief" have
come to my knowledge. 1t needs only
to be tried to speak for itself
You can use this as you please. Very
truly, Tom CRUTCHFIELD.
He told the writer about the
time that this letter was written,
that he had known several cases
where ladies had been invalids for
years, and could find no relief until
by his advice they tried McElree's
Wine of Cardui and in every case
they were cured.
This wonderful remedy was UNI
doubtedly in use fifty years ago,
but its great value was known
TO only single family and q few
of their acquaintance during all
of that time. Since its great merits
have been made known through
the publication Of such letters as
this one from Mr. CrutchfeId and
other good men like him, thou
sands of suffering women have been
restored to health and happiness.
The manufacturers have reports
of thousands of ladies who have
been cured after long years of suf-
fering, and when they supposed
there was no possible relief for
them except in death We know
that many false representations are
made by advertisers, but as Mr..
Beecher says, ''The remedy for ly-
ing advertisements is for honest !
men to tell the truth" No one
will believe that Tom Crutchfeld
would recommend anything that |
he did not know was just what he
sai| it was, and that after reading
his letter any lady could as conf /
IDENTIFY buy McElree's Wine of
Cardui, as she could take the med
icine prescribed by the most cele-
brated physician. If more men
like Mr.. Beecher and Mr.. Crutch-
field would tell the people the truth
about articles advertised, there
would be less harm done by lying
advertisements.
